Immigrants Robbed.


New YORK, Aug. a. One of the
prevalent methods employed to make
money out of immigrants by railroads
are the prices paid for excess baggage.
Every one who has travelled knows that
when trunk is checked at the differ
ent railroad depOts the baggage master
rarely, if ever, weighs it, and often
more than one trunk is carried on a
single ticket. Immigrants who come to
this country usually bring good deal
of baggage and often household articles.
For every ticket purchased an immi-
grant is allowed 100 pounds of bag
gage free, and in the weigh
ing room in Castle Garden
every extra round must be paid for.
This wou Id not be so bad if the same
rates were charged, but, as the. follow
ing table shows, the poor people are in
every instance imposed on. The rates
are taken from the joint tariff rates and
immigrant rates, both COMPUTED by S.
+. Pierson, chairman of the immigrant
clearing house committee, to whose
credit is deposited the net sales of tick
cts in Castle garden and who makes the
distribution to the different railroads in
tho nnnlc.
